Amir Yasin hat mit seinem Beitrag einen ziemlichen Wirbel entfacht. Pointiert geht er zur Sache: "The core of waterfall and agile share this idea of “business driven development”, and it is in this that they are the same bag of bad in different wrappers.“ "The reality of Agile is that you still have immutable decisions made by business people with no real understanding of technology. Those decisions are then forced on to developers. The end result is the same as Waterfall, only the names have changed."

Besonders Berater werden manche Passagen nicht gern lesen: "They assume that if they conduct the ceremonies, the gods of good software will reward them with good software. Ceremonies for the sake of having ceremonies because “that’s what it means to be Agile” actively hinder getting work done.“ "Get rid of your scrum master, your product owner, your Agile coach, and fire the Agile consultancy that’s going to make you more Agile. Now that you have a blank slate you can start to figure out what makes sense for YOU.“
